Synopsis
Excerpt from Appletons' Popular Science Monthly, Vol. 49: May to October, 1896
The scenery and even the geology of the Niagara district have been known for nearly half a century, and hundreds and perhaps thousands of papers have been published upon the falls of Ni agara. Yet problems settled in a rough and ready way by rude men absorbed in action demand renewed attention and show themselves to be unread riddles when men have time to think. Even now it is scarcely fifteen years since the history of the falls began to be known.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book charts the evolution of money's role in human civilization. The book traces the history of currency from primitive barter systems to the use of metal coins and, eventually, paper bills. The author argues that paper money, which initially represented a promise to pay in gold, has gradually become a representation of value based on the overall economy, backed by the full faith and credit of the issuing government. This has enabled individuals and businesses to make transactions with ever-increasing ease and efficiency. The book sheds light on the intricate connections between our monetary system, economic development, and human progress, and highlights the ongoing evolution of money as a reflection of society's changing needs. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Seller Inventory # 9780243005741_0
